Summary[edit]

Description
English: Overlook Hospital in 1906, in Summit, New Jersey, USA. From the website: Dr. William Henry Lawrence, Jr. founded Overlook in 1906 at the age of 26. In 1905, Dr. Lawrence bought the Faitoute property on the highest point in Summit, overlooking the Baltusrol Valley and only ten minutes away from the train station. He borrowed $15,000 from three local civic leaders to build the hospital. On October 1, 1906, the three-story building, boasting an operating room, X-ray facilities, and a hydraulic elevator, officially opened. There were 1,000 visitors on the first day. The hospital had two wards with 15 beds each, and 12 private rooms. The final cost was $30,000— twice the original estimate.
